</div>I missed one characted and ended up with:<br>

Is it really that big a problem to give the long link<br>
<a href="http://blog.hetz.biz/?p=206" target="_blank">http://blog.hetz.biz/?p=206</a><br>
<br>
I know it's 8 characters longer, and 8 characters are a big deal<br>
noawadays. But still, I'd like to know where I'm going to.<br>
<br>
Anyway, both your article and the linked Register. I can't really<br>
reproduce their issue. I tried their example on a not-so-uptodate<br>
machine I have here:<br>
<br>
$ time php -r '$d = 2.2250738585072011e-308;'<br>
<br>
real 0m0.025s<br>
user 0m0.008s<br>
sys 0m0.016s<br>
<br>
I tried playing with this a bit more, and I get the expected flating<br>
point behaviour:<br>
<br>
$ time php5 -r "\$d = 2.2250738585072011e-308; echo \$d+6;"<br>
6<br>
real 0m0.026s<br>
user 0m0.024s<br>
sys 0m0.000s<br>
<br>
php5-cli 5.2.6.dfsg.1-1<br>
<br>
(Tried this on both a 32bit and a 64bit Debian system)<br>
<br>
<br>
The relevant bug report is here:<br>
<a href="http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53632" target="_blank">http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=53632</a><br>
<br>
So this bug looks like an odd interaction with the toolchain. Not sure<br>
whose fault it is. But before you panic: check to see if the PHP version<br>
of your is actually broken. It's easy.<br>
